I was chosen for the 8BC song challenge thread... so using one yellow pro mod DMG-01 GameBoy, I searched the depths of "The Black Maze". I encountered darkness unknown by man, only to fall into its clutches - never to be seen again. and here it is... as per http://8bitcollective.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=1812&p=1 !oven rake! said, "I want sheer brutality. I need dark, I need extremely slow (something under 80BPM). Something along the lines of your worst nightmare(not rambo) and the Mr.Hands video on repeat, slowed down to an ungodly speed where it just looks like a family slideshow. It'd also be cool if it was in A minor(HA i am hillarious) and in 12/8"

This song is lush. I LOVE your use of vibrato!

CCIVORY : this is an amazing track! wonderful. i hear a bit of reverb in here not from the dmg! and the clicks are real low it's incredible. as well as the quality and freshness of the sounds...amazing. not to mention how brilliantly sad this song is -- it gives the impression of time stopping...very very awesome challenge and very VERY well done :)

Mr. Zongrs : Well, it definitely captures the feel of an old skool dungeon crawler. Great work!
at March 26th 2008, 10:18 PM
mdos : Is this straight from the gameboy? Every time I try panning like that, it makes a very unpleasant clicking noise each time the panning is changed, so I usually do without.
